1 answer

To find the rate and the unit rate of 30 chairs in 3 rows, we can start by calculating the rate of chairs per row and then determine the unit rate.

  1. Rate of chairs per row:

    • Since there are 30 chairs and 3 rows: \[ \text{Rate} = \frac{\text{Total Chairs}}{\text{Number of Rows}} = \frac{30 \text{ chairs}}{3 \text{ rows}} = 10 \text{ chairs per row} \]
  2. Unit Rate:

    • The unit rate typically refers to the amount of one item per 1 unit of another. In this case, the unit rate can be considered as the number of chairs per 1 row.
    • Thus, the unit rate is: \[ \text{Unit Rate} = 10 \text{ chairs per row} \]

In summary:

  • The rate is 10 chairs per row.
  • The unit rate is also 10 chairs per row.
